The toilets were uncleanOverall, the train was comfortable, even if the noise was a little annoying during rush hour. The pleasantly soft and well-holding seat cushions make even longer journeys comfortable. The lighting is pleasantly subdued, which allows you to relax and read without glare. I particularly liked the friendly service provided by the train staff, who were always helpful. However, it was a little unpleasant that the toilets were not clean from time to time.

Slight delayI travelled to Amsterdam for a holiday. This connection was the best option despite a slight delay. I travelled in the morning at around 10am and my journey was very comfortable. The trains and the toilets were clean. The Wi-Fi worked well for the most part. There was a Board Bistro on both trains. As I had an Interrail ticket, I only had to pay for the seats.
Advantages
Clear app and easy bookingPunctualityGood wifiDisadvantages
Everything went according to planBooking the ticket was easy thanks to the clear and simple DB app. My train connection arrived on time, the accessibility was given there were ramps, wide doors, escalators and lifts for people with reduced mobility the seats on the train were very spacious and well equipped, they were well upholstered and clean the toilet facilities were clean and well maintained, unfortunately the lock was a little stuck. I reached my destination on time and was very satisfied with this train connection.
